Thanks for the advice. Went to the recommended link but no joy.

However, I found the following reference to fix the code 19 I was getting:

(Code 19) - Microsoft Answers
Tried that step by step and it corrected on the step where I removed the registery key named "UpperFilters" that had a value of "GEARAspiWDM". The value in it seemed to point to an iTunes entry when I googled it. Once removed and rebooted, my CD/DVD drive is now error free!

I now have an error when iTunes opens with regard to a registery entry for importing and burning CDs and DVDs. Onward ho!

zerodivide, thank you so much for this post! It was VERY helpful to me.

FYI, I made a follow-up post on the W520 owners thread (URL below), and I included a link to your blog post and video, giving you credit for helping advance my subsequent research.

I just wanted to thank you directly in case you didn't see the other post.

Cheers!
